don't get too close
they say it's contagious
+ contagious +
dangling from the
fishhook of existence
diametrically shaped
while --
psychos abound with
every twist and turn
surrounding me
suffocating me
as i look for ways
to keep the present
from fading away
dodging and swerving
the wave of life
living by keeping it all inside
don't need medication
i'm stronger than that
but inside my head
lightning flashes
wrecking havoc
as copper tongues
s l i t
the |capsule| of time
written words
d.i.g.g.i.n.g deep
a glimpse to the insightful one
deciphering metaphor to reality
the absolute opposite
the absolute tantamount
absolutely entangled
in the sweat of her voice
in the silky touch of her flesh
in the cyanic enamel of her eyes
she --
my absolute contagion
my absolute damnation
my absolute intimation
